Oil-filled Ultra Shocks™ are fully tunable with a wide range of oils, springs, and pistons. Set the perfect ride height with the included pre-load spacers or dial in race-winning handling with the adjustable steel turnbuckles.
Waterproof Electronics
Your RC experience should be filled with fun and adventure, not limited by the electronics. Traxxas’ patented waterproof technology gives you the freedom to live out your wildest adventures, regardless of the weather.
Clipless Body
Slash VXL's innovative clipless body features secure mounting with quick and easy removal. No posts, no clips—just drop the body onto the chassis and snap it into place for a secure hold. When it’s time to change the battery, depress the tabs under the wheel wells and lift up to access the chassis in just seconds.
Details
Extreme HD Driveshafts
Slash VXL’s Extreme HD driveshafts are beefed up in critical areas for outrageous power handling. The large-diameter half shafts offer excellent articulation and suspension travel and hold up to the Velineon brushless system’s tire-smoking torque with ease.
Oil-Filled Ultra Shocks
Slash VXL's oil-filled Ultra Shocks utilize X-ring technology for a perfect seal and super-smooth performance. They are fully tunable with a wide range of oils, springs, and pistons. Features include pressure bladders for air/oil separation and spring clips to precisely change the ride height and spring pre-load.
Long-Wheelbase Chassis
Slash VXL's long 13.2″ wheelbase chassis provides superior stability on high-speed straights with over 3.5 inches of ground clearance to prevent bottoming out. The chassis includes drain holes and a battery tray channel for routing servo wires to the receiver.
Chassis Nerf Bars
Tough integrated nerf bars offer side chassis protection against the fender-to-fender impacts of track competition and backyard bashing.
High Torque Steering Servo
A race truck needs a powerful steering servo for responsive performance. The Traxxas 2075 waterproof digital high-torque servo provides precise steering authority and speed for wheel-to-wheel racing in the backyard or on the track.
Waterproof Receiver Box
Slash VXL's patented sealed receiver box gives you the freedom to drive where you want, when you want. The antenna and servo wires route neatly through a special water-tight seal. A blue O-ring seals the receiver box to protect the receiver from water.
5-Channel Receiver with Failsafe
The TQi 2.4 GHz radio system stores up to thirty models in memory, allowing you to use one transmitter for your entire RC garage. Integrated telemetry ports in the receiver transmit real-time data to the TQi transmitter when using the Traxxas Link™ App and optional telemetry sensors (sold separately). In the event of signal loss, the receiver automatically returns the throttle to neutral and holds the last steering position.
Adjustable Battery Hold-Down
Slash VXL's innovative battery tray accommodates a wide selection of NiMH and LiPo batteries. The extended tray allows the battery packs to be positioned forward or backward for front/rear weight bias tuning. An optional battery expander kit (sold separately) is available for use with oversize batteries.
Short Course Wheels & Tires
Slash VXL's BFGoodrich® Mud Terrain T/A® tires have excellent grip in the dirt and just the right amount of slide on pavement. Their authentic scale appearance and realistic performance add to the racing experience. The tires come mounted and pre-glued to 2.2″ Split-Spoke dual-profile SCT wheels.
Bellcrank Steering
Slash VXL's high-performance bellcrank steering system minimizes bump steer for precise wheel placement and increased cornering stability.
Adjustable Steel Turnbuckles
Heavy-duty steel turnbuckles allow trackside camber and toe tuning for greater agility and high-speed performance. Captured rod ends provide unmatched durability and they won’t pop off during a race.
HD Suspension Arms
Molded from our toughest composite material, Slash VXL's heavy-duty suspension arms provide just the right amount of flex to resist breaking. These suspension arms stand up to even the most punishing drivers for non-stop wheel-to-wheel racing.
Hex Hardware
Slash VXL uses pro-quality, high-grade, metric hex-drive hardware throughout for extra strength and easy maintenance. The black-oxide rust-resistant finish provides a high tech look and feel.
Clipless Body Mounting
High-flying stunts won’t upset Slash VXL's tough clipless body. Locking tabs hold the body tightly, but release in just seconds. Slash’s hidden latching system maximizes convenience and scale realism by removing traditional body clips which would interrupt the body’s clean lines.
Scale Bumpers
Engineered to handle the abuse of bumper-to-bumper bashing, the scale tube-style bumpers are designed to absorb brutal impacts while looking the part of a true short course race truck.
Extreme HD Suspension Components
Slash VXL comes outfitted with factory-installed Extreme Heavy Duty suspension components for ultimate strength and durability. The rear axle carriers, C-hubs, and steering blocks are beefed up with more material and stronger construction.
Torque-Control Slipper Clutch
Semi-metallic pads and finned aluminum alloy pressure plates dissipate heat and provide consistent traction. The semi-metallic friction material remains stable across a wide temperature range to provide smooth, linear engagement. Spur gears can be removed and replaced without altering the slipper adjustment.
All-Metal Internal Gears
The race-ready transmission is built for massive torque with high-strength steel input, idler, and differential gears and large-diameter bearings. The input gear is keyed and press fit onto the top shaft for greater precision and strength than a pin-mounted gear.
Case-Supported Outputs
The differential is ball-bearing supported directly at the differential case, rather than mounting bearings on the differential outputs. This design better supports the differential, reduces bearing drag, and isolates differential action.
Reinforced Transmission Case
The Magnum 272R transmission is engineered for strength and precision with a tough reinforced case. The case halves engage precisely to seal out dirt and debris and create a rigid mounting structure for the motor and suspension arms. A thick 3.2 mm aluminum motor plate creates a rigid backbone for the housing and helps dissipate heat.
Sealed Bevel-Gear Differential
The heavy-duty steel-gear differential is sealed with X-rings and gaskets and silicone-filled to resist unloading under power. Differential locking action is easy to tune with thicker or thinner silicone oil to suit track conditions.
Removable Differential
Different track conditions require different levels of grip. Slash VXL makes it easy to change the differential’s locking action by varying the fluid viscosity inside. Disconnect the driveshafts and open the hatch and you’ll be on your way to victory in minutes.
